Yamaha MGP32X 32-Channel Mixer with Effects
Yamaha’s MGP32X is the next step in the evolution of compact professional mixers. This mixer combines the warmth and musicality of analog sound with the functionality of state-of-the-art digital technologies.
Powerful D-PRE Mic Preamps
Yamaha’s studio-grade, discrete Class-A mic preamps are able to deliver more power with lower impedance. It does so through its inverted Darlington circuit design that features multiple circuitry elements in a multi-layered configuration. Specifically, the depth and feel of your original signal will be delivered with fat, natural-sounding bass and smooth, soaring highs. Without a doubt, the studio-grade discrete Class-A mic preamps set the MGP32X apart.
Vintage Shaped X-Pressive EQ
More than just a means of tweaking your mix, the precise response and very steep shelving of the high and low frequencies make the X-pressive EQ a powerful sound-shaping tool that essentially redefines the role that EQ plays in sound reinforcement. Never before has an audio engineer’s contribution to the overall sound been so significant. Indeed, with X-pressive EQ, you have complete control of every aspect of your sonic palette.
1-Knob Compressors
These intelligent 1-Knob compressors add optimally set compression to a wide variety of input sources with a touch of a single control. This makes compression a simple process. Visually monitor compression with LED indicators that activate when compression “kicks in” on each channel.
Internal Universal Power Supply
You can plug in with confidence in any region with 100V-240V power thanks to our highly-efficient internal universal power supply. Specifically, with its multi-voltage design, the MGP ensures worry-free operation in potentially damaging environments with fluctuating power levels.
MGP32X’s Unique Hybrid Channel
The Stereo Hybrid Channel offers unique functionality with superior sound. It utilizes a powerful, proprietary digital signal processor (DSP) to provide three essential features that are staples of both installed and live sound applications. It features a mid-sweep, three-band EQ for nuanced sound control and high-performance onboard A/D and D/A converters.
Convenient Priority Ducker
Priority Ducker allows a microphone to take priority over another sound source automatically. Also, you can even adjust the ducker attenuation of the sound source depending on your preferences.
Auto Leveler
This intelligent compressor “auto levels” different tracks from a sound source that vary in volume, providing a more pleasurable listening experience. This can be ideal for automatic operation. Yamaha’s proprietary DSP algorithm allows for extended play time without the worry of fluctuating volume levels distracting your listeners.
The Stereo Image
The Stereo Image function seamlessly narrows the pan balance of the stereo sound source so that audiences spread over a wide area can enjoy a comfortably blended mix. This is particularly helpful for installed sound applications that require background music. Using either of the two optimised settings—MONO and BLEND— Stereo Image ensures that everyone is in the “sweet spot” by providing a more optimally mixed sound to the entire space.
Dual Digital Effects with MGP32X
MGP Series mixing consoles offer two separate studio-grade effects processors for the ultimate enhancement of your sound. Also, these effects are easy to use with simple intuitive controls. Yamaha’s high-end REV-X reverb offers three very musical and natural high-resolution reverb effects: Hall, Room and Plate.
For more sound-shaping possibilities, Yamaha’s renowned SPX digital multi-effect processor provides a useful selection of 16 advanced digital effects with editable parameters. Both processors can be used simultaneously.
Digital Connectivity for Your iPhone
In response to the growing demand for compatibility with iPhones, you can now integrate the MGP32X with iPhone devices. With a single connection, your Apple device is transformed into a flexible controller, giving you more detailed control of your MGP console.
MGP32X Editor
MGP Editor is a free software application that gives you additional control of your console’s DSP settings via your iPod/iPhone. With a simple and intuitive graphic display, MGP Editor gives you additional, detailed control of your REV-X and SPX effects parameters-as well as Hybrid Channel’s Priority Ducker, Leveler and iPod/iPhone’s playback settings.
Graphic EQ (MGP32X/24X)
The new Graphic EQ features 14-band and flex 9-band modes that can easily be controlled via internal display. By limiting the number of bands for boost and cut, the extra DSP can be employed to narrow the filters to 1/3 octave, and allow the user to sweep the filter to the range where adjustment is required.
With 31 different filter positions, very fine adjustments can be made. Additionally, finding and reducing feedback is quick and easy using the offset/gain controls.
Multi-band Compression with MGP32X
The Yamaha MGP32X has a master compressor on the stereo bus. Use either a standard type (COMP) or a three-band divided (Multi-band) master compressor. Using a master compressor allows you to reduce the overall dynamic range of the signal to fit the environment, and protect the sound system from overloads.
High-Quality Digital Playback
The MGP Series mixers feature a built-in USB port to connect and charge your iPod or iPhone for seamless playback with a single connection. A direct digital connection offers a much higher level of quality with more detail and clarity than typical analog inputs can provide.
USB Device Recording and PlayBack
The record function allows direct recording to a conventional USB storage device. You can also play audio using a USB device. You can easily route this to a hybrid channel or to monitor out.
[Notice] Normal recording may not be possible when using certain stick-type USB memory devices. Yamaha recommend using a USB hard disk with a fast transfer speed or an SSD (Solid State Drive).
